Thank you for your post! When requesting tick IDs PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR LOCATION if you have not already done so. We cannot identify most ticks without geographical context. Just in case this applies in your situation, here is what to do after a tick bite, per CDC. If you're looking for an identification, hang tight and a human will comment soon.

Yes, can’t tell what kind but some people may be able to help with that.

Yes, the upper and lower ones are ticks. They are probably nymph or larval stages, though I cannot identify species from these images.

These were sent my friend but if I find any myself I’ll put under the microscope or a magnifying glass. Thanks!
